Introduction
1.2 Description
The TPA0172 Stereo 2-W audio Ppower amplifier evaluation module is a
complete, 2-Watt per channel stereo audio power amplifier. It consists of the
TI TPA0172 Stereo 2-W audio power amplifier IC along with a small number
of other parts and a D–25 connector mounted on a circuit board that measures
approximately 2 1/4 inches by 2  inches (Figure 1–1).

Single in-line header pins extend from the underside of the module circuit
board to allow the EVM to be plugged into the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier
evaluation platform, or to be wired directly into existing circuits and equipment
when used stand-alone.
The platform has room for a single TPA0172 evaluation module and is a
convenient vehicle for demonstrating TI’s audio power amplifier and related
evaluation modules. The EVMs simply plug into the platform, which
automatically provides power to the modules, interconnects them correctly,
and connects them to a versatile array of standard audio input and output jacks
and connectors. Easy-to-use configuration controls allow the platform and
EVMs to quickly model many possible end-equipment configurations.
There is nothing to build, nothing to solder, and nothing but the speakers
included with the platform to
hook up

Operation

Quick start lists in this chapter contain steps that can be followed to quickly
prepare the TI plug-n-play audio amplifier evaluation platform for use with the
TPA0172 audio amplifier EVM, or to connect the TPA0172 audio amplifier
EVM for stand-alone operation.
Using the TPA0172 audio amplifier evaluation module with the TI evaluation
platform is a quick and easy way to connect power, signal and control inputs,
and signal outputs to the EVM, using standard connectors.
The TPA0172 audio amplifier evaluation module can also be used stand-alone
by making connections directly to the module pins, and it can be wired directly
into existing circuits or equipment. A stand-alone connection diagram appears
below.

Operation
2.1 Precautions
Power Supply Input Polarity and Maximum Voltage
Always ensure that the polarity and voltage of the external power
connected to V
CC
power input connector J1, J2, and/or V
DD
power
input connector J6 are correct. Overvoltage or reverse-polarity
power applied to these terminals can open onboard soldered-in
fuses and cause other damage to the platform, installed evaluation
modules, and/or the power source.
Inserting or Removing EVM Boards
Do not insert or remove EVM boards with power applied—damage
to the EVM board, the platform, or both may result.

1) Ensure that all external power sources are set to
OFF
and that the platform
power switch S1 is set to
OFF.
2) Install a TPA0172 module in platform socket U2, taking care to align the
module pins correctly.
3) Use switch S2 to select or bypass the signal conditioning EVM (U1).
4) Set control signal Polarity jumper JP8 to Hi
.
5) Set jumper JP6 to select the
Mode
control input (causes the TPA0172 to
switch to the single-ended output mode if a plug is inserted into platform
headphone jack J10).
6) If the headphone Jack (J10) output will be used, set headphone source
switch S3 to U2–U4.
Power supply

OFF
):
a) Connect an external regulated power supply set to 5 V to platform V
DD
power input connector J6 taking care to observe marked polarity,
or
b) Install a voltage regulator EVM (SLVP097 or equiv.) in platform socket
U6. Connect a 7 V – 12 V power source to a platform V
CC
power input
J1 or J2 and jumper the appropriate power input (see platform user’s

3) Ensure that audio signal source level adjustments are set to minimum.
4) Connect the right (left) positive lead of the audio source to the module
R LINE– (L LINE–) pins and the negative lead to the R IN+ (L IN+) pins.
If using the headphone inputs, connect the positive audio source to the
module R HP (L HP) and the negative lead to R IN+ (L IN+). The inputs
can be used with a differential or single-ended audio source, but the
headphone and line have common positive inputs.
5) Select output mode:
a) For BTL output, connect a speaker to the module OUT+ and OUT–
pins of each channel,
or
b) For single-ended output, connect a headphone or a speaker to the
module OUT+ and GND pins of each channel through a 33 µF to
1000 µF output-coupling capacitor (Figure 3–10).

6) Jumpers S2 and S3 select the least significant bits of the EVM I
2
C
address.
See section 2.5.3 for details
.
7) To allow the module SE/BTL control input to switch the amplifier IC
between single ended (SE) and bridge-tied load (BTL) output modes, set
output mode jumper S4 to
OFF
. To keep the module amplifier IC in the
single-ended output mode regardless of the control input state, set jumper
S4 to
ON
.

Note: ON = Shunt installed, OFF = Open
8) When the module powers up or comes out of shutdown, the gain is set at
the –85 dB level. Gain settings can be adjusted through an I
2
C interface,
connecting to the EVM via connector P1 or through test
point terminals
TP3, TP4, TP5, and TP6 (Table 2–5). To ensure a common ground path,
connect a ground wire between a ground point on the I
2
C transmitting
device and GND on the EVM.
See section 2.5.3 for details.

Control Inputs
9) Connect control lines to the various module control input pins as needed:
a) SE/BTL
: A high selects the single-ended (SE) output mode; a low or
float selects the bridge-tied load (BTL) output mode.
b) SHUTDOWN: A low shuts down the amplifier IC on the module; a high
or float allows normal operation.
Power-up
10) Verify correct voltage and input polarity and set the external power supply
to
ON.
The EVM should begin operation.
11) Adjust the signal source level as needed.

2.4 Stand-Alone Connection Diagram
The power supply range is 4.5 V to 5.5 V and isolated RO/MO+ and LO/MO–
lines for BTL operation are required.
Note that the source of any shutdown signal applied to the EVM SHUTDOWN
pin must be able to sink the current flowing through the pullup resistor on the
module (100 k) when the pin is held low.

C Interface Information
The 8-bit I
2
C address of the TPA0172 is 11011a1a0(r/w). Bits 2 and 1,
designated as a1 and a0, are set by the ADDRESS1 and ADDRESS0 pins,
respectively. Bit 0, designated as (r/w), is the read/write bit where a 0
designates the write operation and a 1 designates the read operation.
The TPA0172 has six 8-bit registers with power-up/reset values and bit
assignments as shown in Table 2–7.
